Attn: Joseph

I can quickly see this way first..

-Go with RFID...
Tag players..put sensors in certain distances and preconfigur in the databases, set watering points too...either connected to the server through Ethernet,wireless or else....what you need is to tell the server relative position of each sensor from the starting point

Then each player can be tracked trough his/her RFID and distance...if pass through the same path..then its much easier...then distance and any other parameter for re-hydration should be preset  for individual or all...the rest is your creativity and coding RFID ability.

Not: setting of the RFID should be in such a way that it would detect a narrow strip rather than football pitch like Radius.

Subject: [Skunkworks] OT- Mobile App - urgently needed below are specs... contact me if it is


We are currently on an event plan for our client a soft drinks manufacturer and we would like your professional opinion before we present our ideas formally. We wish to develop an app to be used at a golf tournament- an app that will show users the distances they have covered, when they need to re-hydrate and the nearest watering points etc.

Kindly give us your opinion on: -
  • If the idea is executable
  • What needs to be in place for it to be executed
  • Timelines for developing app
  • Cost of app
  • Technology needed on the golf course to ensure app is working
  • Any other relevant information
